The Lord’s Prayer (Part 2): Luther on Daily Bread, Forgiveness, Temptation & Deliverance

Episode Description

In this episode, we continue our reading from the Large Catechism of Martin Luther, focusing on the Fourth through Seventh Petitions of the Lord’s Prayer.

What does it mean to pray for daily bread?

What are we really asking when we say, “Forgive us our trespasses”?

Why do we pray, “Lead us not into temptation”?

And what is the evil from which we beg deliverance?

Luther’s explanation is earthy, pastoral, and deeply comforting. These petitions remind us that God cares about our bodies, our consciences, our daily struggles, and our final rescue from sin, death, and the devil.

If this teaching strengthens your faith, consider supporting our charitable work providing food, tuition, and essential care to vulnerable children and families. Your generosity becomes part of God’s answer to someone else’s prayer for daily bread.
